How China Turns Presence Into Power (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The China Coast Guard on Sept. 3 conducted what Beijing called a “routine law-enforcement patrol” in the area east of Taiwan. The Chinese authorities stated that such patrols would be carried out in the waters that they regard as falling within China’s jurisdiction. Taiwan’s Coast Guard dismissed that assertion and kept a watch on the Chinese vessels. The most important term in Beijing’s description was not “law enforcement”—it was “routine.” The great powers do not invariably alter strategic si
Can a Republic Survive Conditional Legitimacy? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Americans have never been expected to trust the government blindly. Indeed, the American constitutional system begins with distrust.

In 25 of the 36 countries surveyed, China now receives a more favorable rating than the United States. Beijing will undoubtedly welcome those numbers. They fit comfortably within the narrative the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has spent years constructing: The United States is a declining power, the Western order is exh
The Revolution’s Enduring Mission (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Founders believed they were doing far more than merely replacing one government with another. They believed they were standing up for a lasting truth about political order: real government is based not just on power, but on moral truths that governments do not create or have the right to take away. The Declaration of Independence did not start with complaints against King George III. It began with basic principles: people have dignity because their Creator gives them unalienable rights, and
